Another hard fought win by HIA SA with the just announced extension of time for the NCC 2022 transition for dwelling additions and alterations. Builders' now have until 1 May 2025. Applications lodged before that date will be assessed under the NCC 2019 provisions. In the meantime, HIA will seek to find more clarity on key aspects of the increase in energy efficiency and liveability requirements.
The release of the Greater Adelaide Regional Plan by Planning and Land Use Services (PLUS) is welcomed. This plan, to allow for the cities growth over the next 25 years is important for our industry, as it sets ambitious targets for the number of homes to be built, in fact 315,000, to cater for a projected increase in population by almost 700,000 people over that period.
Challenges around infrastructure delivery, to cater for the land development required and skilled workers needed are just a small part of the issues that will need to be considered.
Consultation is open until 4 November. HIA will be providing a submission. I encourage all builders' to have their say. Feedback to PLUS can be provided here.
